While Sadie Sink\u2019s role in \u201cSpider-Man: Brand New Day\u201d is expected to be Jean Grey, casting for other X-Men roles in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) has mostly been highly speculative (to say the least).<\/p>\n

The other day came an update from the new film\u2019s director Jake Schreier who revealed that Lee Sung Jin and Joanna Calo are currently working on a draft of the script, suggesting that the project is still some way away from casting.<\/p>\n

Despite this, a new report by Jeff Sneider at The Hot Mic<\/a> is claiming several actors are already being eyed for roles. Specifically, Sneider indicates that \u201cMarty Supreme\u201d actress Odessa A\u2019zion is reportedly being eyed for Rogue.<\/p>\n

In addition, \u201cA Knight of the Seven Kingdoms\u201d leading man Peter Claffey is \u2018in the mix\u2019 for Beast. These are pure rumour for the moment, with none of this confirmed by Marvel Studios, though Sneider says it\u2019s from the same source behind numerous accurate Marvel casting scoops in the past.<\/p>\n

Co-writer Sung Jin said in a recent interview with Variety<\/a> that his favourite mutants weren\u2019t necessarily the famous ones: \u201cI love Gambit. I also love a lot of the side characters. I love Jubilee. Everyone goes for Cyclops and Wolverine, but for me growing up, I always loved the supporting members.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sneider intriguingly also says that he does NOT think the film will be the next one put into production after \u201cAvengers: Secret Wars\u201d wraps. Marvel has three films set for 2028 \u2013 May 5th, July 28th and December 15th.<\/p>\n

Many speculated X-Men would take that May slot, but Sneider thinks the next actual one to go into production will be another \u201cDeadpool\u201d film. If so, then Marvel\u2019s 2028 slate could be \u201cDeadpool 4,\u201d \u201cX-Men\u201d and \u201cBlack Panther 3\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"HBO While Sadie Sink\u2019s role in \u201cSpider-Man: Brand New Day\u201d is expected to be Jean Grey, casting for…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":575300,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[52],"tags":[137872,88,206],"class_list":["post-575299","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-movies","tag-bigslider","tag-entertainment","tag-movies"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/575299","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=575299"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/575299\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/575300"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=575299"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=575299"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=575299"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
